The article Tn the JouRNAL-MINER oi
 last evening in reference to the proposed
 removal of I.soo Apaches to the Camp
 Verde reservation struck popular chord
 among our citizens. There are a few
 people who think tha, the best times a country ever had vas when it was over run with Indians. But this class of peo- pie is very scarce in Arizona, where the people have felt the curse of savage butChery to its fullest extent. Ths gov ernment could not do anything to blight this portion of the territory more than to fall in with General Miles recom- mendation. Why such recommends. tion should have been made by a man who has received nothing but praise from our people previous to this recommend ation of his, k something that surpasses all understanding. unless i, be ascribed
 to one or both of two motives. First, Northern Arizona has always been he warm and steadfast friend of General Crook, the greatest Indian fighter of the present generation. While recognizing this fact. they accorded to his successor. General Niles, due credit and merit for skill and bravery in combating with hostile Indians. In the second place. a motive for his acton can be ascribed to the influence of ring over him who are desirous of obtaining portion of the San Carlos agency. and the removal of I,soo of these -throa,s from that res ervation would open up a way for so- tbeir ends. Whatever his motives are, there is. neither sense nor justice m the recommendation, and the people of the Verde valley will be jusli- 6ed in resisting to the utmost this en- croachment on their rights to protection of life and property

Governor Zuiick, District Attorney Herndon and Sheriff Mulvenon held a conference this morning relative to af- fairs in Ton,o Basin. Just what conclu- s,on viii be arrived al cannot now be stated Some vigorous steps will, how ever. be taken to put stop to further acts Of violence there. IL has been proposed that the sheriffs, with a posse of ten men each, from Yavapai, Apache. Gila and Marcopa counties. making forty men in all, go 10 the Basin and SCOUT the country until every man for whom there Is warrant opi is arrested. Many of the dePredaiions from rus,leis have been committed m the adjoining counties, who are equally interested with this in breaking up a gang oi thieves that are preying on stock men. When the whole facts are brought to light, il will be found that an entirely different cause of trouble exists in that country than what has heretofore been repre- sented

News ot the killing of Andy Cooper. alias R.evins, by Commodore, Owens, sheriff of Apache county, will be hailed with pleasure by stockmen throughout Apache and Eastern Yavapai counties. This man had placed himself outside of the pale of the law long since, and while killing is generally to be regretted, few there are ID Arizona, outside of the des- peraie gang with which hs was connected, thA, will shed tear or mourn over the death of Andy Cooper. While ordinar- fly. no regrets are felt si the death of such characters, a feeling of sympathy is created for their relatives, ost in this case even his aged mother seems, from re- ports, 10 have been in the fullest sympa- thy with her outlaw offspring, and handed her youngest son gun to go out and fight to his death an officer of the law.

a.suh,ns s,.e Teacher.

A number of DAkota counties have lady superintendrnts of schools. While one of them was recently making the rounds of the scbools in accordance with law. she drove up to one little school house on the prairie at abou. II o'clock in the forenoon and found the scholars all out playing about the yard. Two of the boys were ihdulging in a fight, another pair were learning to chew tobacco, while the others w,.re playing marbles for keeps and adjusting ..an old but large and corpulent teskettIe to a dogs tail. The superintendent learned that there had been no school so far that day and when she went into the school house she said to the young lady teacher, somewhat severely;
 "Is this the kind of school you are teaching' 1 fear l shall bs; obliged to cancel your certificate and have you re- moved from the school"
 "Why-why-I-I didn't know you were coming"
 "Ah. that's just it, know you didn't but did come and caught you. I shall be obliged to ask you to hand in your resignation immediately"
 "But-but, Mss Rhetoric, let me ex- plain. l."

EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN: VIII
you give me space for an emphatic denial
Of the rumor sent out by wire TO the gen.
eral press Of the country few days since
to the effect that Miss Sara Jewett, the
favorite and popular New York artistic,
twas suffering for the necessities OF life
had applied TO the actors fund for relief;
was addicted to the opium habit. and a
ply steal wreck"
have known Miss Sara Jewett aud her
family intimately for years, and, In addition
to the recent prompt denial by the Boston
Globe and by A. NJ. Palmer, OF New York
city, have, besides my own personal knowl.
edge, the best authority for pronouncing the
whole rumor, from beginning to end, 10
every detail, a tissue OF falsehoods. Miss
Jewett is at Clifton Springs, among her
friends, In usual health, and has never had
the slightest cause to ask for aid from the
actors fund, although she has sustained
some severe Losses In common With dramatic
misfortunes OF a purely business nature.
The Tumor originated with the New York
Sun, and its perfect and positive unreliable
ity speaks well for its origin to those who
have become versed in the theatrical policy
Of that paper. A graver injustice was never
perpetrated upon a lady's honorable repu-
tation than this wholly and entirely false
rumor. LIsLE LESTER.

plentiful but 1t seems that such loans have
been offered 10 greater extent than has
lately been the case and the indlspositipl to

is less marked. Offerings. however are usu-
ally In limited amounts, and per cent. rates,
with collateral above the average, are de-
manded, though this rate has been shaded 10
some instances on extra collateral. The tend
encies in regard to commercial paper are some
what irregular. Some institutions are re-
ported as more liberal buyers OF paper, but
this is still by no means general, and discount
rates, though in some instances shaded below
those Of last week, are firm. Choice double.
named paper is spoken of as having been
bought below 6 per cent, and extra single

slightly higher. Paper of lover grade has

teen OF the principal centers OF trade in
the country show that slime loans" are
about as difficult to obtain and the discount
ls as heavy as before the treasury disbursed
its $24, 100000 for the benefit Of Wall street
spectators. Philadelphia is the only city
in the list Of fifteen where money is said to
be sin ample supply for trade require
ments," and that the banks are discounting
freely. Everywhere else there is still a
scarcity of money and high rates demanded
for its use.
In the meantime the administration does
nothing. The President is enjoying him
self in the northwest, and the Secretary Of
the Treasury consults only with Wall street
bankers, who have now money to supply
the Spectators at from 3 to per cent. iu-
terest, and thus keep speculation alive,
while they demand collateral above the
average,n and from Gi to 10 per cent. for
money to be used 10 business.
Perhaps there will be an awakening soon
from the present dream. Congress meets
